--------------------------------------------------A PRAYER FOR PROTECTIONIN TIME OF PANDEMIC

O Mary,you always brighten our pathas a sign of salvation and of hope.We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick,who, at the Cross, took part in Jesus’ painwhile remaining steadfast in faith.O loving Mother,you know what we need,and we are confident you will provide for usas at Cana in Galilee.Intercede for us with your Son Jesus,the Divine Physician,for those who have fallen ill,for those who are vulnerable,and for those who have died.Intercede also for those charged withprotecting the health and safety of othersand for those who are tending to the sickand seeking a cure.Help us, O Mother of Divine Love,to conform to the will of the Fatherand to do as we are told by Jesus,who took upon himself oursufferings and carried our sorrows,so as to lead us, through the Cross,to the glory of the Resurrection. Amen.Under thy protection we seek refuge,O Holy Mother of God.In our needs, despise not our petitions,but deliver us always from all dangers,O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.

Adapted from the prayer of Pope FrancisKNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

Let us remember the prayer of our beloved Saint Patrick

May the Strength of God pilot us.May the Power of God preserve us.May the Wisdom of God instruct us.May the Hand of God protect us.May the Way of God direct us.May the Shield of God defend us.May the Host of God guard us.Against the snares of the evil ones,Against the temptations of the world.May Christ be with us!May Christ be before us!May Christ be in us, Christ be over all!May Thy Salvation, Lord, always be ours,This day, O Lord, and evermore. AmenFr. John
